Cool article, and as much a glowing review of the x5m, which along with the cost delta, makes the JGC comparison even more impressive. Gotta give the SRT8 guys props for getting in the same cage with Bavaria. Hell, we've already seen the Porsche comps earlier.

Favorite line: "It makes you feel like you can go faster (around a hard turn), until you find yourself rolling in the grass like a giant croquet ball".

That is probably because the driver of the SRT overslowed or didn't carry as much speed thru the corner prior the straight as the X5 driver did.....

It would have been a fairer comparison to have the same driver for both trucks.....

I think two different drivers is strange too. Maybe they took the best times of both drivers? The Bimmer is clearly quicker, faster and sharper in the corners though. Its just not going to change without mods.

I still think the X5 driver was more aggressive, just look at how he was throwing the bimmer into the corners.....
